Open the Pod bay doors, Kuga.

Who here doesn’t love technology? Who doesn’t love science fiction. Same. And who doesn’t love London? If that’s you, then you’ve come to the right post. Ever-inquisitive Japanese traveler, Kuga gets around. A lot We’ve featured him before. His videos are always a laugh and, even more, they’re useful.

This time, rather than being in Asia, he’s in London. Before his adventures even begin, he’s immediately intrigued by Heathrow Airport’s Pod system that whisks you away from your plane strait into the airport. What are they then?

Heathrow Pods are a unique, automated transportation system at Heathrow Airport’s Terminal 5. They are driverless, electric vehicles that transport passengers between Terminal 5 and the Business Car Park. These pods offer a convenient and eco-friendly way to travel, especially for those using the Business Parking facilities. See more below.

It makes you wonder why other airports don’t do the same thing. Imagine thrilling your little ones (no matter how old they are) when they hop inside and squeal with delight. I would do the same. Next time I’m there.
